Imagine having to send an SMS to someone and it is urgent but your phone tells you that it cannot send or receive text messages. Well it can be a bit of a bummer, right? You are unsure if it is because of your service provider or if it is because of your SIM card or mobile phone itself. Most of us experience this at least once or twice each month and it can be unfortunate if this occurs on a regular basis. How can you solve this problem and how can you prevent it from happening ever again?
Although even technology is not perfect, that does not mean that you can’t get the comfortability and the peace-of-mind that you can always rely on your devices. Although I can say that things like these really happen, what steps can you take so that it doesn’t affect your productivity?
If you own a smartphone, chances are, it will have this airplane mode which you can utilize in order for you to cut out power consumption. Airplane mode is a setting which prevents receiving and sending of text messages and calls. It cuts out almost everything, turning your smartphone into a piece of brick for a period of time. This setting is turned on when say for example you are unable to properly receive or send messages in order to refresh your network of any intermittence or interruption.
Reboot your phone
Another thing that you can do is to reboot your phone. Why is this one of the “possible” solutions? Well maybe your phone is just dead tired from being used and wants a break. By rebooting your phone, you force stop all applications even the background applications that are running. This might just be the reason why you are having that network problem.
